The fundamentals of automotive software – #983
Training in partnership with the VDA-QMC
Context
Software is an essential part of today’s vehicles. Like other parts and components, it is therefore subject to high quality requirements. On the one hand, the software manufacturing process is not fundamentally different from other manufacturing processes: products are developed, tested, released and approved on the basis of specific requirements.
However, a closer look reveals significant differences from the hardware manufacturing process. For example, it is easier to set up parallel production stages, changes can be implemented much more quickly and, what’s more, software specialists have developed their own technical terms and agile project management methods.
Objectives
- Understanding the stages in software development.
- Be familiar with the three levels of software testing.
- Know how to manage software projects.
- Learn how software is documented and distributed as a product or as part of a product.
- Know how to include software development in the application of VDA standards such as MLA, VDA 6.3 or ASPICE.
Recommanded for
Anyone who has not yet worked on software projects, but who, as a project manager or auditor, needs to assess the quality of software development processes.
Prerequisites
No prerequisites.
Specific operating conditions for remote sessions
- Have a PC equipped with a microphone, webcam and, if possible, a headset for greater comfort. Note: To blur or hide the view from behind, background screens are available in Zoom or Teams.
- A good Internet connection, tested before the session.
- Locate in a quiet, isolated area; switch to “not available” status in Teams; close your email access and mute your phone to avoid distraction during the session.
- To avoid off-topic discussions during the session, participants from the same organisation should not be grouped together in the same room, but rather at their own desks. Virtual sub-groups will be set up specifically for the exercises, which will also allow for mixed groups to be created.
- The webcam and microphone must be open during remote qualification/certification exams. It may also be necessary for us to check that you are the only one in the room.
- We ask that you connect at least 5 minutes before the beginning of the session.
Pedagogy
This basics course offers short practical exercises in addition to technical presentations that are easy to understand, even for software laymen. Together we will try to think and plan like software developers, using simple examples to practice systematic evaluation of software development processes.
Evaluation mode
- Knowledge test (MCQ).
